The Lufian Project - In Your Eyes

How did I get so far gone?
Where do I belong?
And where in the world did I ever go wrong?
How did I get so far gone?
Where do I belong?
And where in the world did I ever go wrong?
For me to be smart in your eyes, it doesn't work like broken ties
I try guys, wait I'm wise, a different style when I vocalise
That's why I don't socialise, don't like the social lies
Don't mobilise, don't like the social sites on the mobile lies
Social likes are like local lies, that's why I'm not localised
Wait, focus guys, I try to hopefully guide you to open eyes
You get your brain and open wide and take the train of choke and lies
From the omen eyes, not caring about you or notice I
They want their signatures notarised to let their golden tokens rise
Till they lie in hell, well I'ma let my emotions rise
In the cold there's homeless guys, but the government's cold as ice
But they're in the warm with the horniest girls, groping thighs
Prostitution's bad, yeah, hypocrite spoken lies
From the rich to the stoner guys, you don't realise, they don't equalise?
Looking evil like eagle eyes, or the vulture eyes
Hunting down the weak, is this really where our culture lies?
How did I get so far gone?
Where do I belong?
And where in the world did I ever go wrong?
For me to be smart in your eyes
How did I get so far gone?
Where do I belong?
And where in the world did I ever go wrong?
For me to be smart in your eyes
From the land to the ocean tides, they got a plan for our hopeless lives
Being the media's bitch until we organise the coke in lines
Becoming greedier, rich, when there's people who can't cope and die
Society, it hurts to see it, like when the soaps in eyes
Creating the insane thoughts that no one knows about
Unless someone like Oprah finds or someone who opens minds
Cause you gotta open blinds if you hope to find the shine, escape society
That's probably why I toke these dimes that's probably why I wrote these rhymes
But let's not pretend, sometimes I feel alone but I'm coping guys
I'm losing my friends, they're blowing in the wind like broken kites
I excitedly invited these friends to me when I was hosting nights
But I bet they'll want me back when I climb the ladder like the broken tights
So first I hope a night and dim the light and focus right
To get my moment right, I practice for the open mics
I hope to rise to the rope and climb to get my tokens right
And finally give back to the ill that choke at night, the hopeless lives that ain't coping right
How did I get so far gone?
Where do I belong?
And where in the world did I ever go wrong?
For me to be smart in your eyes
How did I get so far gone?
Where do I belong?
And where in the world did I ever go wrong?
For me to be smart in your eyes
Okay that's the truth, that's really why I vocalise
See in the booth, I let loose like when a slag opens thighs
Okay girls, do you really know them guys that are in front of you?
About to open flies, playing you just like rolling dice
That's why you're, well, stereotypically you're not known as wise
Cause you let them walk all over you, until you break, just like frozen ice
Woah, should I stop now? Should I stop now?
Be more normal, maybe follow the crowd
Nah cause I hope to rise to heaven to get some known advice
From the real that have been killed by an organisation
With the omen guys
Their money must stink like a swamp where an ogre lies
Now I ain't like these other rappers that just note them lies
Down on the paper to get their paper notes to rise
Never show them guys respect, I'll help you escape the lies
So hopefully you're show my rhymes to your friends
Let's not pretend, the truth is really why I vocalise
First I hope a night and I dim the light and I focus right to get my moment right
I practice for the open mics, I hope to rise to the rope and climb to get my tokens right
And finally give back to the ill that choke at night, the hopeless lives that ain't coping right
That's why I vocalise, fuck
How did I get so far gone?
Where do I belong?
And where in the world did I ever go wrong?
For me to be smart in your eyes
How did I get so far gone?
Where do I belong?
And where in the world did I ever go wrong?
For me to be smart in your eyes
